Can we please just give adams a try rather than spending 12 million for a half a season of this douche?

Nunez would be ok too if he can improve his defense. The guy can hit, he's a much better all around player than Gardner.

I have a feeling that Youkalis is going to turn out to be like the Nick Johnson signing. He'll be be injured most of the season. I guess Cashman wants to take a chance on him and hopes that he can be the old Youkalis, a legit #3/#4 hitter.

Nunez is not even close to as good as gardner lmao

THE GOAT

Until a player reaches these PA numbers, lets not talk about how good they are.

He's a better hitter, hits for better average, has more power.
Gardner is a better base runner, but Nunez is pretty good himself.
The problem with Nunez is that because of his defense he's not getting enough playing time.

Why the hell do people think so highly of Gardner??? he is terrible, he's fast and is a good outfielder, other than that he's garbage... Nunez is all around a way better player than Gardner just not defensively

Yeah..your wrong.

Gardner .266/.355 with a 91 OPS+
Nunez .272/.318 with a 88 OPS+

Similar batting average with a higher OBP for Gardner.

Gardner also see's more pitches per plate appearance, steals more bases, and offers much better defense.

how many homeruns and rbi's does Gardner have??? yea he's defensively better, but people make him out to be great.. the guys sucks

Who cares how many home runs Gardner has, he isn't a power hitter. Which is fine.

If you think he sucks, then Nunez sucks too. Nunez doesn't have better numbers; in fact, most of his numbers are worse then Gardner.

Again your basing your argument off home runs. And now RBI? Lead off hitters and 9 hole hitters aren't your RBI hitters, they are guys that get on base. Create a base steal threat, which Gardner does better in those two categories as well.

Having a sports debate is useless because you bring absolutely nothing to the table other then your hate for Brett Gardner which is making you biased.

Nunez has a whopping 5 home runs in 338 plate appearances
Gardner hit 7 home runs with 558 plate apperances.
